Prior to forming a plating resist so as to cover the portion of the vertical and horizontal dividing grooves of the collective insulating substrate, as well as the portion excluding the range for forming the second front electrode layer,
After the formation of the second front electrode layer, the step of removing the plating resist is adopted. Therefore, the second front electrode layer made of a relatively thick Cu plating film is formed on the vertical and horizontal division grooves of the collective insulating substrate. Therefore, it is possible to minimize the occurrence of burrs (chips) when dividing the collective insulating substrate.
